Intelligence's Creative Multiplicity

Intelligence''s Creative Multiplicity addresses one of our time''s most essential insights if we are to think with the sophistication our future demands. Intelligence has multiple aspects each of which is critical to understanding ourselves and to addressing the important questions before us as a species. 

From the book''s back cover: "We take appropriate pride in our rationality, but other aspects of our cognitive complexity-the imaginal, the emotional, the intelligence of the body-play equally important roles in our unique toolmaking, meaning-making natures. Creative Systems Theory brings particular attention to the role of intelligence''s multiplicity in what makes us human. And it argues that a greater appreciation for intelligence''s multiple aspects will become more and more critical in times ahead. The theory describes how a more conscious and encompassing relationship to the whole of intelligence is key to the more nuanced and mature-we could say simply wise-kind of decision-making that will be increasingly necessary in all parts of our lives. Intelligence''s Creative Multiplicity offers a deep-dive look into this rich and dynamic new picture of cognition''s workings."
